During the presentation, Macklin offered an optimistic look at the direction of location-based entertainment, which includes the use of VR — combined with elements such as 4D effects — to place experiences in cinemas, theme parks, malls, museum and other such public spaces.

Macklin's keynote was followed by a rich panel discussion featuring prominent executives Nancy Bennett, Chief Creative Officer at Two Bit Circus, and Brooks Brown, Global Director and VP at Starbreeze Studios.
